The end of the blood fight, in which 15 pitchers from both teams were put in, was a victory for the bears, who showed the power of 'JamsilGapo'.
The Doosan Bears won the second game of the week series against the Lotte Giants 13-8 at Jamsil Stadium on the 3rd.
Since the launch of professional baseball, it was the first game in Jamsil Stadium history with two grand home runs. The main characters are Yang Seok-hwan and Yang Eui-ji.
Doosan trailed 0-6 in the early stages when starting Alcantara collapsed, but started chasing after Yang Seok-hwan's double in the bottom of the second inning. Yang Eui-ji's two-run shot in the bottom of the third inning and Yang Seok-hwan's come-from-behind bases-loaded shot in the bottom of the fifth inning turned the game around 7-6.
It allowed a 7-7 tie, but Yang Seok-hwan's winning shot led the game again 9-7. And in the bottom of the eighth inning, when he was chased to 9-8, Yang Eui-ji once again activated the bases-loaded gun and sealed the game.

Yang Seok-hwan, the captain, and Yang Eui-ji, the master of the game, led the game with 11 RBIs. Yang Seok-hwan's first two at-bats led to a double home run. However, I was able to confirm the sharp sense of hitting. In the third at-bat that followed, he hit a dramatic come-from-behind grand slam. Yang Eui-ji sealed the game with a two-run shot in the second inning and a bases-loaded shot in the eighth inning. Catcher celebrates his fourth consecutive 10-homer milestone for 11 consecutive years," he added.
The two grand slams in a game in Jamsil Stadium's history are the first in 43 years since the inauguration of the KBO League. Yang Seok-hwan said "The first record feels good anytime. It's more meaningful because the record came on a really important day for the team. I'm happy to leave a name with Will, he said.

Manager Lee Seung-yeop said, `In the mound, the starting pitcher left the mound early, but the seven pitchers who took the mound later lasted seven innings with the least number of runs. Today's come-from-behind victory was possible thanks to the pitching staff's hard work," he stressed.
We would also like to thank the fans for cheering until the end. There is one game left in the first half. I will do my best to make fans laugh in the last game of the first half," he repeatedly vowed.
